If you were a teenager in the nineties, you'll know that this chat was kind of a big deal.

Texas had a great career and now they're back with a bang, so 'Jump On Board' because we interviewed Sharleen Spiteri about Newmarket Nights, The Loch Ness Monster and why she always asks for a toaster in her dressing room.

*singing: Yeah, you can say what you want, but it won't change my mind*

Hi Sharleen, how are you?

"Not too bad, thank you, how're you? (already off to a good start), my exciting plans for today are to be at home, which, to be honest, is pretty damn exciting for me, I'm not home that often so it's quite good."

We can imagine so! Is it lovely and sunny where you are?

"It's absolutely glorious! So I'll probably do a bit of cooking and chilling out.

"I've got to pack because I'm going back off to Scotland tomorrow."

Oh lovely, we love Scotland, whereabouts?

"Edinburgh, I'm playing a gig tomorrow, so that's quite exciting.

"The funny thing is, because we're from Glasgow, being somewhere like Edinburgh is like being in Harry Potter! Even for Scottish people, Scotland is just like Harry Potter land."

I wonder whether Texas will be doing a rendition of the Hogwarts school anthem?

YES, YES it is! (We tried to keep our cool but it was at this point we knew we'd be best friends forever).

So are you looking forward to Newmarket Nights?

"I certainly am, we're looking forward to just having a good laugh.

It's always one of those nights where you have a good time because it's not your normal sort of gig."

And are you a betting woman?

"Well we always put a little bit of money on the horses!

That's kind of like a standard for us lot, you just can't help yourself!

It's funny because I'm rubbish at betting!"

Are you like us then? Just choosing horses based on what the jockey is wearing?

"Yeah, I'm just there looking at the names going 'Na i don't like that name, is that really what you would call your horse?'

I always look back at the first time we played a racecourse, thinking 'Am I really standing on stage looking at people with fascinators on their heads!"

Who would you say your biggest musical influence is?

Ooh he just is good isn't he? He's like a king

"It's that steady, rhythmic feel. It just feels so effortless and true, and I think you could just feel that he loved it.

"A lot of people think it's just about the artist on stage, but the audience give so much too.

"The first moment when you walk on stage before you go into the first song - that's really the only moment which is yours.

"But then after that the audience determine which direction you go in. I love audiences and I love what i do and being on stage as well as the interaction with the audience and the little nuances in different places."

Is there a big variation in the crowds of different places? Are Cambridge folk rowdier than northerners?

"It depends. You can go to Cambridge one year and then go back a couple of years later and it be a completely different mood.

"It depends on what's going on in people's lives and all of that plays into what we do."

If you could go back and relive one moment of your career what would it be?

"Nothing, I'm too busy going forward. I like going forward, I like not knowing what's going to happen and if I were to relive it, I would know what was going to happen and it would ruin the moment."

So you enjoy the spontaneity of things?

"Yeah I do."

So to the really important questions:

Do you request anything strange or peculiar in your dressing room?

"It's nothing particularly strange or peculiar but then some people might think it's strange, but I always ask for a toaster and bread."

Okaaaay...What do you have on your toast?

"Marmite. I'm a Marmite girl."

What ratio of butter to Marmite do you have?

"It's got to be more butter, than Marmite, but you've got to hit all the corners."

And a full layer of butter?

"Yes it has to be a full layer of butter and the trick is to slightly distress the bread."

Oooh go on...?

"You've got to put loads of butter on. One layer which soaks in and then another, then the marmite thin, even and scrape it a bit to distress the bread so it goes a bit crumbly.

"That's when it's really good."

Love it or hate it, we know which side Sharleen is on!

I think you should go and sit in the back garden and eat some NOW.

"Aye I just might."

And finally, do you believe in the Loch Ness Monster?

"Hell yeah! Of course i do.

"There's something seriously eerie going on.

"Honestly if you were standing at the edge of that water and something came out and grabbed you, I swear to God I would not be surprised.
